I don't just want to make a video about
what's going on in Iran to prove a point
about Israel, but I think it does
demonstrate a broader point about the
true motivations
of what animates these people on the
left and across the political spectrum
who've been speaking out against Israel,
against America, against the West. When
you see these protest groups lecturing
Iranians or Venezuelans
or even some Gazins about where they
should stand on the issue, when you see
these radical protest groups supporting
Kamas or Maduro or the Ayatollah, what
it actually shows is that this was never
about Zionism or Israel or Kamas or
apartheid or genocide or oppression or
suffering of innocent people at all. As
far as these movements go, it was simply
about one thing,
them
and their cause, their self-indulgence,
their narcissism to feel virtuous. All
these oppressed people they claim to be
advocating for, they're just pawns,
abstractions in a cause to make these
people feel virtuous. And you can tell
that that's the case because none of
them are actually affected by the causes
they advocate for. You mean to tell me a
lot of these upper middle class college
kids are affected by Palestinians
suffering in Gaza or the conditions in
Venezuela or what's going on under the
Iranian regime. No, but they are all
causes they can use to get behind to
feel important, virtuous, like they have
an orientation. Think about what the
actual flesh and blood human beings
stand to gain from the collapse of
Maduro. The people of Venezuela who've
been oppressed by him. What they stand
to gain. The Iranians marching in the
street, what they stand to gain, a
future, a freedom, and prosperity. But
what do these radical protest groups
stand to lose if those things happen?
They lose their cause, their sense of
virtue, their orientation,
and they're not going to let that
happen. Everything they stand for is not
on behalf of supporting any other groups
other than themselves. And when you take
those causes away, if hopefully the
Iranian people can defeat the regime
that's been oppressing them and the
Venezuelan people can thrive in a new
chapter of freedom, the far-left loses.
It not only will demonstrate that their
ideologies are wrong, flawed, unethical,
immoral, but these so-called causes they
claim to care about no longer exist, and
they're not going to let that happen so
easily. The need to feel virtuous, the
self-indulgence, the narcissism, that's
what drives them. There's nothing easier
than standing for or against something
that has no real consequence to you in
your life. They continue sipping their
lattes and matcha teas and go on living
while feeling virtuous and important and
good. As far as they're concerned, they
can't take that away from me. So don't
be fooled. They don't care about the
flesh and blood human beings, the
individuals that seek to gain so much
from defeating their actual oppressors
to live in a pro-western, pro-
prosperity, pro- capitalist world. Cuz
then what's there to be against? This
has never been about advocating for
marginalized or oppressed peoples. It's
been about advocating for their sense to
feel good while doing so.
